Obama's Plan to Seize Control

by Jim Powell - Forbes Magazine

President Obama has made clear that he’s determined to continue pushing his “progressive” agenda, regardless of constitutional limitations on his power. He aims to have his way by issuing more and more executive orders.

The most ominous sign of possible things to come appeared on March 16, 2012, when President Obama signed executive order 13603 about “National Defense Resources Preparedness.”

This 10-page document is a blueprint for a federal takeover of the economy that would dwarf the looming Obamacare takeover of the health insurance business. Specifically, Obama’s plan involves seizing control of:

* “All commodities and products that are capable of being ingested by either human beings or animals”
* “All forms of energy”
* “All forms of civil transportation”
* “All usable water from all sources”
* “Health resources – drugs, biological products, medical devices, materials, facilities, health supplies, services and equipment”
* Forced labor  [or “induction” as the executive order delicately refers to military conscription]

Josh, is your answer to every critical posting about your man Obama a post about Bush? Bush isn't POTUS. Obama is President and from what I remember, my quality of living was better when Bush was in office. My house was still worth $320,00 and now that Obama is in office it's worth only half of that but the almost 2 grand house payment remains the same. I was employed when Bush was in office. When Bush was in office I wasn't one pay check away(my husband's) from being homeless. The people who protested and rioted when Bush was in office - who threw marbles under the hooves of horses - now riot, burn and defecate on police cars are paid for by the entities embraced by the Obama administration. Try not to let these posts affect you personally. If you like Obama that's fine. But we don't require a rebuttal or posting of something that Bush did. It's childish as is your knee jerk search to "show" Devorah the error in her ways. Did you look into your reliable source, Josh? Here's another truthful article I found at the site you posted:

How about this one: Obama embraces Islam

I left the Republican party because of Bush but I would take him any day over the Marxist, Islamist Barack Hussein Obama.

In response toMoriah, April 30 05:28PM post, do you think that a person is without religion. Mitt is a mormon. Do you know anything about this Xiatian sect? In my opinion, there is no difference between Mormon or Islam. Both are fake and hate Jews with a passion. This is Anon101.

Wow Josh, Vanguard news network? This is your source? Don't you place a bit more credence in an article from Forbes? Go read the comments under the article linked in Moriah's post. You might as well have posted an article from stormfront.

Anon101,
The thing is all religion is fake except for the Torah and HaShem and true Judaism handed down from our Sages for 1000's of years. Now the difference between the fake religions such as the ones you have listed is.... Islam wants to force conversion or kill you and has always been this way.... Mormons may have as well in the past but now they are kinder in their conversion tactics.... Fact is all Religions want your soul. The main thing is we as Jews hope and pray for Moshiach to come and usurp, all these fake goy religions and make things right. Shalom Ariela

Islam believes in one G-d, the problem with radical Islam, who are under influence of bad angels to destroy things, it is a lit bit similar to some people who only say negative things which also goes under the same categories.

Anon- I didn't say anything about Mitt Romney so don't assume anything...unless you are a mind reader. Moreover to say there is no difference between Mormons and Islamists is like saying there is absolutely no difference between a Tuna and a piranha.

"Josh, is your answer to every critical posting about your man Obama a post about Bush? Bush isn't POTUS."

No, but Bush *was* the POTUS. And maybe people here have a short memory, but people were saying the similar things back when he was the President and people were convinced that *he* was Gog. I don't think that it is racism, or anti-Democrat, or anything like that. Rather, I think that it is the apocalyptic folks up to their old tricks that the sky is falling.

If Romney becomes President, we will see similar things about him.

"Wow Josh, Vanguard news network? This is your source? Don't you place a bit more credence in an article from Forbes?"
Well, that was an early Google hit. I am really working from memory, that people (including some bloggers you likely know) were making a big deal of this back in Bush's days.

all the best,
josh

Oh, also Yonatan, Obama is not "my man". I didn't vote for him. I voted for McCain and probably will vote Romney in the coming election, depending on how things develop. (And voted for Bush in the previous election.)

I was just disgusted by the things people with Bush Derangement Syndrome (BDS) were saying back in the day. And also take a principled stand against what seems to have similarly developed regarding Obama.

Thank you Josh for keeping things fair and balanced
